Why did the frontie cease to exist in the US?

The frontier in the United States effectively ceased to exist by the end of the 19th century due to a combination of factors, including the westward expansion and settlement facilitated by the Homestead Act of 1862, the completion of the Transcontinental Railroad, and the increasing consolidation of land by settlers and businesses. As population and infrastructure grew, the once vast and unclaimed lands became developed and organized into states and territories. The closing of the frontier was officially declared in 1890 by the U.S. Census Bureau, marking the end of an era characterized by exploration and the pursuit of new opportunities.
